Hi shane847,

I've discussed this issue with Dream Vegas. On the 15th of January at 1:31:54 server time you deposited $30 and received a bonus of $60. You played until you had lost all funds and then at 2:44:18 you deposited $200 and received and $80 bonus. This is the 40% bonus detailed within the Welcome Package for your second deposit. At this point you immediately following this you started wagering at $40/round and on your tenth wager won over $2k.

The bonus terms and conditions at Dream Vegas allow for a maximum bet of $5 per round while you have a bonus. Unfortunately as you've exceeded this the operator are within their rights to void the bonus contract and reset both parties to pre-bonus conditions.

Sorry we cannot be of further help.

Hi shane847,

You already have a complaint submitted about this issue. Please do not submit further complaints about this issue. If you have further comment regarding your issue this is the appropriate place for it.

To respond to your newly raised complaint about this issue:

- Where you accept a bonus it is your responsibility to ensure you know the rules associated with the bonus. The argument 'nobody reads the rules' doesn't bear scrutiny, otherwise you could simply withdraw the bonus funds as soon as you deposit and no rules would apply.

- You are responsible for knowing whether you've received a bonus. These are clearly advertised and you balance does not just show your cash balance. It shows the bonus balance as well.

- Whether you are playing with your deposit or the bonus funds makes no difference. When you receive a bonus you are subject to the bonus terms until such time as you have completed the requirements associated with the bonus.

Finally as far as 'redoing our investigation', as is clear from my previous post, I went through your account history and reviewed the terms associated with the bonuses you received. There is nothing further for us to review.

I'm sorry that you are unhappy with this result, but all I can suggest is that in future you ensure you are familiar with the rules of any bonus you receive before you start playing.

Thanks,

ThePOGG
